Tactics

  • Crystals first. Break the five pylons and kill Immol'thar so the Prince loses his mana feed and becomes noticeably weaker.
  • Melee and whirlwind. The Prince hits hard and whirlwinds — keep melee grouped and heal the tank steadily.
  • Focus. This is the wing's final tank-and-spank with no adds — just keep the tank alive and don't drag it out.
  • On x5 with level 58–60 gear and Immol'thar dead, the Prince is a low threat.

FAQ

Who is the final boss of the West wing?

The final boss of Dire Maul West is Prince Tortheldrin, a highborne night elf. He feeds on the mana of Immol'thar's crystals; if you free and kill Immol'thar first (break the pylons), the Prince weakens and becomes easier.

How do I kill the Prince more easily?

Do Immol'thar first by breaking the five crystals — this cuts the Prince's mana feed. Keep the tank in place (he has a strong melee hit and whirlwind) and heal through the AoE.
